Why menstruation?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I'm not saying that I, personally, agree with the fetuses-are-invasive-parasites language or that we should feel actually threatened. I'm just saying that the language *of* the article makes sense for Suu's comment.

Yes, it completely does... that's what I meant to say here:

Really, though, it's only horrifying if we accept the adversarial language the article has burdened it with. I mean, I played along with that too, but honestly (as inconvenient as it is) should we be horrified, or feel enmity toward, a highly effective reproductive process which helps our bodies select for healthier offspring? We love to think of ourselves as individuals but we are also members of a species, and as such our purpose is largely to perpetuate the species, which is not necessarily a bad thing (even though we are fairly good at making it a bad thing).

I have some trouble with the wording of the article.
